Camille, All I can do for the moment is to refer you to Mary Miller's book, "Place Names of The Northern Neck"...which is usually by my side but at the moment is maddeningly hiding. I see that you are the featured speaker at the next RIchard Henry Lee Chapter of the SAR meeting on the topic of "Rosewell and Governor Page" on May 16th. (Westminster Canturbury complex at Weems/Irvington area) You are always a Super Hero here in the Northern Neck. I am happy to host anyone here on this list to be my guest for this presentation, but I will need confirmed reservations. The cost of lunch is somewhere in the neighborhood of $12. Cash bar, starts at 11:30 a.m. usually ends around 1:30 p.m. In the meantime, anyone with any information about this mill, please chime. Richmond County does sound right.

I believe it was in Richmond County, but not so certain of that. > > I also believe it may still have currency--when I came across it in an `8th-century letter, it sounded familiar. > > Many thanks, > Camille.
